Well done to these three little stars! 🌟🌟🌟

Tallia, Carys and Bella blew me away this dinner time. They were the first to go over and help the dinner ladies clean an accidental spillage. They were so kind and I felt so proud to see these three girlies showing exemplary be kind behaviour so they won a dip in the box and a plover postcard. Well done you 3! Keep it up!

Are you ready for a Viking Quest?

Year 3 and 4 proved they were ready for the challenge of being a Viking Warrior this morning, demonstrating that they have both brains and brawn in our Viking Quest.

We were given the challenge to strengthen a Viking Hoard, but only if we could complete the challenges first.

We had four quests to complete that would give us a number combination to open the lock on the Viking Treasure Chest.

The Riddle of the Runes – could we decipher the words written in Viking Runes,

Timeline Trouble – could we find the missing event on the timeline

Warrior Wordfinders, had us searching for the missing Viking word.

And finally we were Amazing Archaeologists looking for Viking artefacts in our own archaeological dig.

After we successfully showed how we could use our brains, we then show how physical we were and how we could follow instructions by playing Capture the Flag, Viking Ships and Raising the Sail.

We had a fun afternoon watching ‘How to Train Your Dragon’ for a different peek into Viking life.

Have a look at at how we launched the day!

What a great day!

I just wanted to say a big well done to all the children in Year 3 and 4, for their great effort and determination today.

Children were challenged to try things they hadn’t done before and what impressed me the most was how they kept trying and didn’t give up, even after defeats!

Behaviour was great and and judging by the children’s comments, a good time was had by all.

I am in the process of going through photos, and so there will be another blog with images of the day.

Finally, thank you to the parents, carers, grandparents, aunties, uncles, brothers, sisters and everyone else that came to support the children today, your cheers were so encouraging for them, I hope you enjoyed your morning.

Sports day

Well done to Year 4 on a fantastic sports day, the Year 4 crew are so proud of you all. It was great to see you all being really supportive, joining in and showing great behaviours!

As you can see, we started off all excited and by the final race, we were very tired.

Crew Brown/Wood

This afternoon our Crew created our Crew shield. Our crew colour is blue so the children worked collaboratively together to create our Viking shield. Our expedition this term is all about Vikings so it gave the children a great taste of what’s to come! Well done Crew!
